I’ve been playing with the new iPhoto ’09, it’s major selling point is face recognition — it attempts to spot faces in your photos and keep a record of who’s where. It makes some brave attempts, but doesn’t always make it:

First it spotted a face in Bearwood High St.

Then it saw faces, lots of them, but didn’t connect them together.
